```
kops create secret encryptionconfig [flags]
```

### Examples

```
  # Create a new encryption config.
  kops create secret encryptionconfig -f config.yaml \
  --name k8s-cluster.example.com --state s3://example.com
  # Create a new encryption config via stdin.
  generate-encryption-config.sh | kops create secret encryptionconfig -f - \
  --name k8s-cluster.example.com --state s3://example.com
  # Replace an existing encryption config secret.
  kops create secret encryptionconfig -f config.yaml --force \
  --name k8s-cluster.example.com --state s3://example.com
```

### Options
